2cv Model- where can i get one?

[slomax]

Hello,
I'm after a 1/18 or close (minimum of 1/24) model of a 2CV. preferebly a plastic kit to build- relatively detailed with opening bonnet and doors, i dont mind modifying it if needs be. Tops of about £25 for a decent one, but prefer less than £20.

Failing that, does anyone know a manufacturer that makes a die cast 2CV that is original and not one of these tuner jobbies. All the ones i have been able to Locate have ben £35+ and i really don't want to spend that much.

Failing that i have drawn up a very detailed chassis/sus/drivetrain package diagram @ 1/20 and may be persuaded to build one from scratch, but it will deffinately be a labour of love. If i was scratch building one i think i would build it up from components like chassis/engine/body etc etc- so would take a long time. I'm still undecided if i can really be bothered though.

thanks in advance

Tamiya do a 1/24th kit, I can't see any on Ebay at the moment but Modelzone always have a couple in.
